11 months old and won't roll from back to belly?

My little girl turned 11 months yesterday and still won't roll from her back to her belly. If she ends up on her back during the day she will just squirm around until she gets pissed off and then starts to cry. She still sleeps on her back every night and is always in the same position we leave her in in the morning. In some ways it's convenient because I don't worry about her standing up in bed but I am starting to worry that perhaps something is wrong physically. She can roll to her side (when she wants to) and she will roll over if I push her 3/4's of the way over but won't do it by herself. I am pretty sure it's just stubborness but was wondering if anyone else has a kid like this?

Mine is the same, he is like a little beetle stuck on his back. He is crawling and nearly walking so this is not worrying me, he has rolled over in the past so I think he is either being lazy, stubborn or has forgotten how.

I love that he does bout get up in his crib, he can rotate somehow but never stands. So you are not alone!

She didn't roll over at all until 6 months but was sitting up on her own pretty well by 5 months, pulling up at 8 months, crawling at 9 months and cruising at 10. She received a push walker for Christmas and can push that on her own. She doesn't care for her belly, never has and I am wondering if that is part of the problem.

To be clear, not because I would expect that needs to happen from lying down, but I am wondering how she is using her muscles, coordinating and balancing. There could be something here if some other coordination efforts are off.

I think you may be right, it might just be that she is stubborn and knows she doesnt like being on her stomach so she doesnt want to go there. Thanks for the update on all the activities she does do. She sounds right on track in all other aspects, so I wouldn't be too worried. Mention it at her next ped appointment and see what the doctor says. And enjoy the not standing up in her crib thing now while it lasts! My son is constantly pulling himself up, spitting his binky halfway across the room and then crying for it. lol Middle of the night, we just give it back and lay him back down, boom right back to sleep. Wish he didnt do that, would cut our times getting up in half. :)

She can crawl by me either sitting her on her butt and she will lung forward to get on her knees or by laying her on her belly and she'll get up on her hands and knees and go. She will pull herself up and sit herself back down. It's just every once in a while she will lose her balance and fall over and if she lands on her back she's like a turtle and stuck. And she stays of course when I lay her on her back. I tested her after I wrote this and put the tv remote barely out of her reach while on her back and she'd twist her upper half and leg so far that all she had to do was push off with her foot and she'd be over but she just wouldn't. I plan to ask about it at her 12 month appt but I have a gut feeling most of it is stubborness on her part cause lord knows she has plenty of it but doesn't come by it naturally or anything
